RIB Shack Marine

Very friendly, very efficient, very good!!

Boat ownership for us is about spending quality time together as a family and creating memories with each other and our friends. Ribshack help us do that 1 week in every 4 throughout the year! We are so pleased that we found Ribshack to help us buy our boat. They make the entire experience of ownership totally painless and completely seamless. They wonderfully separate the ‘need to do’ from the ‘want to do’ of boat ownership. The team take care of all of the “need to do” parts of the boat, like maintenance, insurance, cleaning and servicing, leaving us to make sure that we take care of the “want to do” parts, which is getting the keys, jumping onboard, heading out to sea and enjoying ourselves. I would not hesitate to recommend Ribshack Marine!

RIB Shack Marine has given me the opportunity to get on the water at a young age, I have always dreamt of owning my own boat and it has now become reality, with less hassle and financial strain than I ever imagined. The Ribeye boats are very reliable and the service that RIB Shack provide is second to none, with the sharing economy on the rise, I would highly recommend this service to anyone.

Daily commuter, with young children so time poor, but RIbshack Marine have kept me and the family on the water! It’s opened up a whole new world of places to explore and visit, adventures and memories have been made, with all the hassle of boat ownership taken care of! Colin and Helen are always accommodating, it’s a great business we are lucky to have on our doorstep. Worth every penny spent!

We joined the scheme about 6 months ago. The whole experience has been extremely positive - from our initial contact at the 2015 Southampton Boat Show, through purchasing and onto ownership. Nothing is too much trouble for Colin & Helen.Our family has thoroughly enjoyed the days, weekends and weeks we've had on our Ribeye 785 Custom Sport - a beautiful RIB of exceptional quality. As well as the Solent, we have taken Avatar to Dorset, Devon and Cornwall, enjoying exploring the coast and some exhilarating rides!

Having always wanted to try boating, but not sure I had the time or committment to be a full-time boat owner, I was delighted to find out about RSM's shared ownership and gave it a go. I haven't been disappointed. It is a fantastically easy way to get out on the water with minimum fuss and effort: the RIB is in the water primed and waiting for you, ready to go. There's no winching/trailering to worry about. Very highly recommended!

10 years and three boats later in the scheme - amazing experiences

A great service - friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. The perfect solution to owning a boat at the fraction of the normal cost!!
